because president morsi is a member of the muslim brotherhood. there have been concerns over whether he might literally remake the egypt and israeli peace treatment. it appears president morsi has been a key player in bringing about this cease-fire agreement. now, what the united states and in particular, of course, israel will want to see from the egyptians next is some effort to block the smuggling of those rockets that hamas is firing, from egypt, under the tunnels, into gaza and across the southern border. the rockets are made in iran and shipped through sudan and come up through egypt. egypt could have the will and the power to stop the smuggling of the rockets. it remains to be seen whether they will do that. while we are at the u.n. we should also mention while the israelis and hamas have been able to come to a deal on a cease-fire, the united nations security council has not been able to agree on any kind of statement on the violence of the last eight days. the united states proving itself again to be disunited and completely irrelevant e
